Abstract: A task force is established to analyze how public schools use English learner (EL) revenue at the site level and administrative level, consider how microcredentials or other certifications may be used to improve collaboration between teachers working with ELs, and make recommendations on how EL revenue can be used more effectively to help students become proficient in English and participate meaningfully and equally in education programs. Minnesota's English Learner (EL) student population has increased by 14.9% the last seven years; currently, ELs represent 9.7% of the total student enrollment within Minnesota public schools. The context of growth in the EL population presented an opportunity to critically examine ways to improve outcomes for Minnesota's EL students. This report is the culmination of the meetings of the EL Task Force which took place in August 2024 through January 2025 bringing together stakeholders to lend their voices to a thorough discussion of challenges and recommendations to create a more effective EL education system.
